If Only/What If


If only people could see the beauty within

And not stop at the skin

 

If only the heart could be seen

Especially when it bleeds

 

What if we loved instead of hurting

And prayed instead of worrying

 

What if we helped instead of burdening

And when we speak let it be encouraging.
